Texas Equusearch used a small boat equipped with sonar to search for 2-year-old Devin Davis in a creek near his home where he went missing yesterday afternoon while his mother was taking a nap in Liberty County east of Cleveland Wednesday, March 28, 2012, in Cleveland.
The boy's mother said she had fallen asleep after securing her son and another 1-year-old child for a nap, said Rex Evans with the Liberty County Sheriff's Department. The mother told authorities that the door to the house was locked with a bolt, but somehow the child managed to get outside.
She discovered him missing about 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, looked around frantically for a while and then alerted authorities who issued an Amber Alert.
Evans said the mother also found the door to her jeep was ajar, though she said she had left it shut.
The child was last seen wearing a red and gray T-shirt and jeans. Initially, authorities thought he was wearing Spiderman tennis shoes but those shoes were located inside the home. less
